Chapter 9 - GO AWAY!

Audrey poured hot water in the wooden bathtub in Prince Rhysand's bathroom. She mixed the hot water with cold water. She measured the temperature with her hand. Make sure, the hot water is perfectly mixed so it won't melt someone's skin.

When she got up, she saw Prince Rhysand come into the bathroom. He was wearing a bathrobe.

Audrey looked down in fear.

Don't, don't do anything big baby! Don't undress in front of me! Audrey's mind was struggling.

She didn't want to stain his own eyes with the image of a grown man! Really.

Prince Rhysand started to take off his robes. His cloak fell to the floor.

Audrey glared. She saw the white robe was lying on the floor.

"What are you doing? Hurry up." Rhysand asked him.

"What did I do?" Audrey repeated Prince Rhysand's statement like a fool.

"Yeah, what are you doing here, commoner?" asked Prince Rhysand.

Audrey raised her gaze to Rhysand. The man was shirtless. The curves of her chest muscles are imprinted so beautifully. His skin was as soft as a baby's skin and the most amazing thing was that it shone like pearls.

DUG. DUG.

Audrey's breath caught in the man's chest.

"What are you doing?"

Unlucky. Her legs couldn't move. Her was stuck in place.

"You want to see me take a shower?"

Audrey's breath caught. Her eyes were still bulging at that amazing chest. Beautiful and stunning.

"Hey! You really want to see me take a shower?" said Rhysand in a high pitched voice.

Audrey stammered. Her body was like being electrocuted because she realized his position. "Forgive me, sir."

Reflexively, Audrey picked up Prince Rhysand's robe that was lying on the floor and quickly closed the bathroom door. Until it makes a thud.

She held his own chest. DUG. DUG. DUG

Heart! Please, stop beating.

DUG. DUG. DUG

Damn, why is his body so sexy?

DUG, DUG, DUG

"Inhale, exhale. Inhale, exhale." Audrey pursed her lips. She exhaled slowly from his lips. Like blowing out a candle.

Only then, her heart was controlled. Oh, my God. She shouldn't have stood up and admired those muscles!

Audrey noticed the cloak she was holding. "Damn, damn! It's because of Adaline!"

Rhysand splashed a few drops of water on himself. In this bathtub, she found some rose petals. It smells good.

At least the girl could provide him with his bathing needs. Rhysand came out of the bathroom tub. He had been in the bath for a long time, he didn't want his skin to stretch and lose its elasticity.

He stared at his own face in the mirror. Rhysand used a towel to cover his lower body. He touched his own body.

He has a pitiful welt on his back.

"Damn, just now, did you see that girl, didn't you?"

During this time, Rhysand had not allowed anyone to see this scar. He considers the scars on his body are a disgrace and bad memories.

He didn't want anyone to see it.

Including the servants.

In fact, usually the palace maids are also in charge of bathing them. His father was also bathed by the maids. Likewise with his brother, Hammington Grissham. He had a maid who also bathed them.

However, Rhysand would not allow anyone to touch his scar.

Rhysand turned to look for his bathrobe. His eyes scanned every corner of the bathroom.

"Usually it's here."

Rhysand swept his eyes across the bathroom floor.

There is not any! Nothing anywhere!

Where had he put his robe?

Chief Rhysand tried to re-examine the memory that had just happened to him.

He just took off his bathrobe. Let it hang on the floor. Then, he argued with the woman.

Oh, my gosh! He didn't see her when she left.

Rhysand covered his face.

"AUDREY!!!"

"AUDREY!!!"

Audrey swallowed her saliva. His ears were not deaf. Prince Rhysand's moans were heard throughout the fifth-floor hallway.

All the maids who were there gulped their saliva. Afraid.

Whereas just now, Audrey joined a woman who took care of Prince Rhysand's clothes. She had just handed him her big baby's dirty clothes.

"That, you were called." said Jessylin in charge of Prince Rhysand's outfit.

"Oh, yes."

Jessylin gave Prince Rhysand's folded clothes to him. Audrey scurried down the hall carrying Prince Rhysand's clothes.

Audrey was lucky to find Jessylin circling the room carrying a trolley of dirty clothes and dirty sheets. Fortunately, he also asked where he should put Prince Rhysand's robes.

When she arrived in front of the bathroom, Audrey knocked gently.

"Enter." Prince Rhysand's cold voice made Audrey shudder.

Hopefully, Prince Rhysand's anger was simply because she didn't wait for him to shower. Hopefully.

Audrey came in e in Prince Rhysand's bathroom. The man sat down with a red face. Obviously, he was angry.

"This is Prince Rhysand's outfit."

"Where's my bathrobe?"

"I've already handed it over to the person in charge of the dirty clothes."

"You put it in the stroller?" Rhysand snorted in annoyance.

O-ow. Audrey grimaced. Apparently, she made a mistake by dunking the cloak into the stroller.

"So you actually put it in that stroller?" asked Rhysand again. This time his voice was even higher.

"That's right, My Lord Prince."

"You're telling me to put on clothes when I'm wet?"

Audrey covered her mouth. Stupidly, he left Prince Rhysand's towel and robes. Though, Ms. Adaline clearly wants− warned himself not to forget the towel.

"Hoah. I can't believe what's going on here. How can you be... so incompetent?"

Audrey closed her eyes for a moment. He bowed before Prince Rhysand.

Prince Rhysand stood up from his spot.

Audrey closed her eyes tighter. He is ready to accept anything. Slapping, hitting, or other insults.

However, Prince Rhysand just walked by grabbing his clothes.

"Get out of here before I yell at you harder."

Audrey's small steps away from Prince Rhysand. As Audrey's tiny fingers turned the doorknob, Prince Rhysand whispered to her. "From today onwards, you don't have to take care of me. I'm sick of seeing you."

Audrey's eyes narrowed. "Lord."

"Go before I kick you out and want to behead you." Rhysand said. His teeth were chattering. Obviously, She was suppressing his anger.

Seeing Prince Rhysand's already furious expression, Audrey go from there.

She closed Prince Rhysand's bathroom door.

Audrey descended the stairs one by one. She grumbled a little.

'I don't know anything about maid world. I'm blind. I can't even read.' Audrey very frustated.

Then, unfortunalety, she met Mademoiselle Edeva.

"Why are you here, shouldn't you be accompanying Prince Rhysand?"

Audrey froze. She didn't know what to say to Mademoiselle Edeva.
